2011 State of St. Louis Workforce Report

This morning St. Louis Community College unveiled the findings of our third annual “State of St. Louis Workforce Report.” Employers in the St. Louis region are challenged to find “work ready” applicants with the personal effectiveness competencies – often described as “soft skills” – needed to succeed in the modern work environment, according to the report findings.

This report provides critical workforce intelligence that business, economic development and education decision makers will find valuable as they develop strategies to address a changed environment for business development, economic development and talent development for our region.

The 2011 “State of St. Louis Workforce Report” was developed by St. Louis Community College in partnership with local workforce investment boards, Missouri career centers, Southwestern Illinois WorkNet Centers, Go! Network, BounceBack St. Louis, Missouri Economic Research and Information Center, and the St. Louis Business Journal.
